Hi, Nascif Re: your e-mail from Wednesday, March 7, 2007 5:47 PM NAN> Another newbie question - does Ivy provide any support to alert the user NAN> that it is time to update the dependency versions in ivy.xml?

NAN> Perhaps some way of failing the resolve task if ivy.xml has more then X% old dependencies... NAN> Does anybody has a similar use case? If you are simply trying to "get the latest version" you can use dynamic revisions in your Ivy files (for example, <dependency name="commons-logging" rev="latest.integration" conf="default"/> Perhaps, I am not quite understanding what you are trying to achieve.
